Energy Efficiency in IT Infrastructure: ZeroNet strengthens its role in high-security environments with INCIBE and Wayra

Telefónica, through its open innovation hub Wayra and the Spanish National Cybersecurity Institute (INCIBE), have selected ZeroNet to join their vertical cybersecurity acceleration program, an initiative designed to lead the deployment of energy-efficient solutions for demanding IT environments. This partnership not only validates the robustness of ZeroNet’s SaaS platform, but also positions energy optimization as a core pillar of operational resilience for large enterprises.

As part of this collaboration, ZeroNet is advancing the development of an intelligent algorithm capable of detecting anomalous energy consumption patterns. This innovation enables early warning signals for potential threats or intrusions, proving that energy data is now, more than ever, a critical asset for security and business continuity.

Energy Efficiency in IT Infrastructure: ZeroNet, INCIBE, and Wayra

Sustainability as a pillar of operational resilience

ZeroNet’s integration into the INCIBE Emprende by Wayra program responds to an urgent market need: the convergence of sustainability and technical security. For organizations managing large-scale infrastructure, true resilience means maximizing efficiency without introducing new layers of risk.

The platform is designed to integrate exclusively via APIs, eliminating the need for additional hardware. This API-first approach ensures fast deployment, minimizes technical friction, and reduces the attack surface—strengthening existing infrastructure while significantly lowering both CO₂ emissions and operating costs (OPEX).

 

Secure-by-Design architecture for critical environments

While energy efficiency is the platform’s primary focus, ZeroNet’s architecture was built from the ground up with security and reliability in mind. Handling sensitive IT infrastructure data requires secure design principles at its core, enabling adoption in highly regulated industries.

  • Technical Validation: Selection by INCIBE and Wayra confirms the platform aligns with Telefónica’s high standards.

  • Hardware-Free Deployment: Avoids new physical points of failure and simplifies compliance with internal security protocols.

  • Real-Time Monitoring: Delivers precise visibility of global energy performance, even across distributed infrastructure.

 

From environmental metric to business KPI (CSRD Reporting)

ZeroNet’s ability to turn energy consumption into an auditable business KPI makes it a strategic tool for regulatory compliance. The platform empowers IT teams to lead sustainability initiatives and reporting under the CSRD directive, providing real, verifiable data in contrast to market-standard estimates.

This milestone with INCIBE and Wayra marks the beginning of a new growth phase for ZeroNet, proving that energy efficiency is not just about savings, but a driver of profitability, resilience and security for the digital infrastructure of the future.
